Daughter age 30 being released in August to live with me (mom)

[Braveheartmom]

Hello
I am looking for support. I am a parent of BPD child, now adult (30) who has been in and out of mental institutions for years. She also has anorexia, threats of self harm, and OCD.

I am allowing her back in my house. It has been over 7 years that she has lived with me.

Thanks for any advice or feedback.

Our objective is to better understand the struggles our child faces and to learn the skills to improve our relationship and provide a supportive environment and also improve on our own emotional responses, attitudes and effectiveness as a family leaders

Hi and welcome!

You are in the right place for support.  We have a lot of parents who are here for support and to learn coping strategies and tools that can help you in your relationship with your daughter.

Can you tell us a bit more?  What sort of setting is she currently in?  What sort of support do you have? 

We have tools that can help you when your daughter moves in with you.  We also have a lot of other articles we can discuss and review.  A good place to start reading is here:  How to get the most out of this site  See what catches your eye or post more here.  Feel free to jump into other threads too.  We get the most out of this site by participating and talking with other parents who have been through similar things.

Hope to hear more from you soon.

Again,
